dma-buf: Update cpu access documentation
- Again move the information relevant for driver writers next to the callbacks. - Put the overview and userspace interface documentation into a DOC: section within the code. - Remove the text that mmap needs to be coherent - since the DMA_BUF_IOCTL_SYNC landed that's no longer the case. But keep the text that for pte zapping exporters need to adjust the address space. - Add a FIXME that kmap and the new begin/end stuff used by the SYNC ioctl don't really mix correctly. That's something I just realized while doing this doc rework. - Augment function and structure docs like usual.
